While I agree that Korona exhibits some really poor font rendering
probably due to antialiasing turned off, it's not as if you should
be particularly proud with yours, also. FYI, this is how a decent
font rendering should look (and yes, it's your favourite KDE):

I had with Kubuntu live cd crash very soon on my laptop with 9600mGT so i don't use KDE it looks like Vista not thanks.

Kubuntu is the worst distro available (buggy KDE implementation, buggy Ubuntu packages fanning the fire). I'm not surprised it crashed. Try any other distro with KDE (Debian, Fedora, OpenSuSE) and you should be pleasantly surprised.
Change the theme if you don't want it to "look like Vista" (which as of 4.3 it doesn't).

KDE4 has matured VERY fast for it's age because of the excellent community around it - 4.2 was the first usable release and 4.3 is the polished version of 4.2 with a few extras thrown in. I think the rest of the features should be ported from KDE 3.5 by about ~KDE4.6.

It seems the "4.0 not for daily use!" message still hasn't reached some ears.

IMO - KDE 4's newest release beats the hell out of any desktop environment available including Vista, Win 7 and Mac OSX.

For you yes it probably does everything you need but everyone has different uses. For example I couldn't in good conscience recommend really any desktop in linux to a person who needs accessibility tools. OS X pretty much skins everything else out there "out of the box" for the visually impaired for one such example.

Are you sure? There is lots of quality accessibility tools for Gnome (not so sure about KDE, but maybe cross compatible) last time I heard this topic discussed (on Linux Outlaws, who also assumed that Linux lacked these tools - which according to multiple replies it does not).

I think this is something that KDE does lack, it seems like I heard of an effort a while ago to support the same API Gnome was using inside QT, but I don't know what the status of that is. Hopefully the Gnome tools will work with KDE soon.
